The correct statement that accurately describes the way light waves propagate is:
Light waves travel faster in solids than in air.
In general, light travels fastest in a vacuum, then in air, and slowest in liquids and solids. However, within substances, light tends to travel faster in solids compared to liquids due to the differences in density and the nature of the material.
